"How much is this can of Coke?"

"Just add $50 to whatever it normally is somewhere else."

And also the free water fountain was shut down 'for public safety' during Covid and hasn't been turned back on since.

So now you'll either pay $50 for a beverage, or you'll die of dehydration.

I learned how to survive in such a situation from TV!

goes to the bathroom and drinks his own pee

Honestly, that seems low.

Kind bar at the supermarket: 1.99

Kind bar at the airport: 19.99

Not kind at all!

Supermarket: Kind bar

Airport: Cruel bar

Can I get cheese on that?
“That’s $7.”

Do airport prices not end on 0.99?

Nah that’s for supermarket and petrol station noobs

Airports just go for the throat because fuck you

What are you going to do? Go to another airport?

Ideally. I'd hate for my trip to the airport to not include going to another airport.

What’s your success rate there?

Currently 100% outside small hobbyist airports, but given the state of aviation I'm not certain the streak will continue

Impressive, to be honest.

In Brisbane I’d stop at the big servo before going to the terminal if I could

My daughter works at the Brisbane Airport. She avoids buying anything from there

You mean $30

$29.99

For the doritos alone

When travelling, carry your own Food Bag.

Never know when your plane will get redirected/stuck on the tarmac.

And poop bag. #baglife

Just don't mix them up

One of those items

Wait until you get on the plane.

Went to a McDonald's at an airport recently. $8 for fries and a sweet iced tea.

not even double the price of a 'regular' mcdonalds. where did you find such a great price?
